National Novel Writing Month comes to the Augusta Library

National Novel Writing Month - Press Start

Do you want to write a novel but need some motivation? Now is your time! National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo) arrives in November. The goal of participants is to produce at least 50,000 words in thirty days.

Sound hard? It is!

Is it worth your time? Definitely!

Becoming part of the NaNoWriMo community can nudge you to produce writing that you may not get around to creating otherwise. (Click on the link to check out the official NaNoWriMo website.)

Six-time NaNoWriMo veteran Samma Johnson will be sharing her insights with interested participants in her NaNoWriMo 101 presentation at the library on October 16 at 6:00 p.m.

Samma will also be sharing writing insights with aspiring teen authors at her Teens Write 2.0 presentation at the library at 5:00 p.m. on October 24. The Young Writer's Program is National Novel Writing Month especially formulated for the busy student. At this presentation, teens will learn the benefits of writing as young adults and find resources for jump-starting their writing.

Both programs are free and open to the public. For more information, please contact Samma Johnson at Johnson@augustalibrary.org or call the library at (715) 286-2070.
